Ground Beef Recall Retailer List

Acting much more quickly than they did with the JBS Swift Beef recall, the USDA has just released a list of the numerous stores affected by yesterdays recall of ground beef from Beef Packers, Inc. If youll remember, the Cargill-owned slaughterhouse in Fresno, Calif., recalled more than 825,000 pounds of ground beef after it was linked to illnesses caused by a drug-resistant form of Salmonella. So far, more than 40 people in 11 states have been made ill with the largest number  at least 21 persons  being in Colorado.

The list includes stores in Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming. A stores appearance on the list does not necessarily mean they received any of the contaminated meat; check with the stores management to verify whether they are affected by the recall.
